High rise buildings – helping you to feel safe
As a responsible landlord your safety has always been a priority for us. The Government led Building Safety Act 2022 provides reforms to give residents more -
- rights
- power
- protections
so homes across the country are safer.
The Act states that every resident of a high rise building -
- should be reassured that their building safety risk is being managed
- can expect to be informed about the measures being taken to make their building safe
- should be empowered to raise safety concerns and to know they are taken seriously
- should be provided with safety information
- should be encouraged to take part in making their building safe
